GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II OC - Display driver has stopped responding & recovered

I'm having a with a problem with my new MSI GTX 560 Ti twin frozr II/OC. About once a day (sometimes more) my display either crashes and goes dark or the display fills up with small squares and then goes dark. After about 10 seconds the display comes back and I get the error message: "Display driver stopped responding & has recovered. Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version xxx.xx stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
I am not much of a technical troubleshooter but is this a driver issue or a problem with the card itself? Some forums out there are saying that I need to increase the GPU voltage, etc. Being somewhat of a noob, I am looking for the easiest explanation/solution that even someone like me can handle...thanks.

Display driver has stopped responding but has recovered ....

I have just rebuilt my system which is now
Windows 7 (64 bit)
Photoshop CS4 11.0.1 (64 bit) ( open GL)disabled in preferences)
Core I7 950
graphics card Gianward nividia gtx 285
Photoshop is installed on OCZ vertex SSD
File info on Western digital caviar black
Mother board ASUS rampage gene
I print to 3 printers incuding an Epson 7900
I am not having any problems till it comes to printing my photos ..
When I print to any of the printers with "print preview " enabled I get the message "display driver has stopped responding but has recovered ...."
The Microsoft event ID = 4101
The screen goes black and remains so for a few seconds before it returns ...
Sometimes I am able to get the printer to go ahead and print... sometimes it wont and I have to start the whole print process again..
Needless to say this is irritating ..( by the way this happens with both of my Epson Printers ..the other is an 3880
I have just downloaded the latest drivers for both printers and the latest Nvidia drivers ... the problem remains
The ASUS probe indicates that all teperatures are within an acceptable range..
I would be most gratefull if some one could help with a solution ?

It really depends on what drivers windows uses by default for you. On older versions (vista, xp, etc) it would default to Standard VGA driver which is there only for compatibility purposes so it's barely using the video card but if i remember correctly win7 tends to use drivers from ati/nvidia's site for video cards (not the latest version but still a major step up from Standard VGA).
See if you can enable OpenGL drawing in Photoshop. If you can and you don't get any funky stuff (broken cursors for the brush tool and the like) then there shouldn't be any problem with using those drivers.

Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered - Intel HD (Satelite P75-A7200)

I am trying to play minecraft on my Toshiba Satelite P75-A7200 running Windows 10 preview build 10130 . The game starts up ok and I can start playing it but then, anywhere from 10 seconds to 10 minutes later the Minecraft window locks up. It shows a "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered" error in the lower right of my laptop screen. The Java Platform SE binary process shows as not responding when I open task manager. I have tried updating drivers direct from Intel, The latest would not install onto Windows 10 (Not a valid OS), Changing the Windows TDR timeout in the registry to 8 (no effect), and simply deleting the display devices and file associated with them and allowing the system to add them back. I am out of ideas at this point. Please help.

When I first got my P750, right out of the box I was having the same type of issue you are describing here. Only mine had to do with playing a dvd in the Toshiba DVD player. Regardless, after many attempts to fix the issue, the following shows a method of how I was able to fix it. It may or may not work for you, all I can say is it worked for me.http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Video-Display/Display-driver-error/m-p/299816 My solution is down near the bottom of page 2 and basically it had to do with Nvidia and Intel driver compatibility. I hope this helps.

Display driver has stopped responding . Please help

When playing the game Aion on the Vista side of my computer, the screen freezes, goes black, and returns. After closing the game, I receive the error message "Display Driver nvlddmkm stopped responding, has successfully recovered"
I've tried multiple methods to fix the problem, but none seem to work. Is it Vista, or is it the drivers/hardware? If it is Vista, should I try upgrading to 7? I really don't want to pay and upgrade to 7 yet because my Snow Leopard install disks for the Windows drivers are 6 hours away due to the fact that I'm a college kid.
Any suggestions?

GT 660 Display Driver has stopped responding and has now recovered

Hello,
The above is a rough interpretation of the message I got.
Things seemed normal and then the screen would go blank until I moved the mouse (at which point I would get the message). This happened twice and I headed over to this forum when it started happening again and again till I got the BSOD. I am using driver version 270.61 and am now downloading the latest drivers. Prior to this The laptop would freeze or give a red screen occasionally until I forced restart. I was told it could be a dusty GC, but is the display driver not responding problem related to the dusty GC? I haven't cleaned it because I simply don't have the time these days.
Thank you.

red screen occasionally
Meaning? If it's what I think it is: Screen turns red in total?
Then it looks to me your videocard is going bad or overheating.

Display Driver has stopped responding and has recovered. bsod if I use mercury hardware acceleration

Hi, I bought a cheap NVIDIA card to go alongside my GTX285 to allow me to use a third monitor for timeline playback. I've done this before with an ati card with no issues but needed to change to a single height card to get the extra slot back.
It installed it's drivers and then whenever I opened premiere CS6 it would immediately hang and blue screen. I removed the card and rolled back to old drivers but no change. NVIDIA support gave me beta drivers but no change either. They suggested that my card or motherboard was faulty. (Motherboard is a EVGA Sr2) Eventually I found I can edit normally if I turn off hardware acceleration for the mercury playback engine and leave it as software only. Not much use when my GPU supports CUDA.
Even now the display driver keeps giving me the "stopped responding" message with or without premiere open so I'm thinking there is some hardware issue somewhere. The Blue screen only occurs when I use mercury hardware acceleration.
I have ordered a GTX470 because I can't afford to spend hundreds on a 690 etc.
The current driver version is 306.97, error occurs in CS5 and CS6
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Michael.

The reason the ATI card worked was because that is completely 2 separate drivers. That makes it easier for the OS to sort out the device ID's although that can cause issues with some applications and the ram shadowing done by Win 7 compositing mode. However when you use 2 Nvidia GPU's, the drivers are essentially the same as far as what the OS see's but they have completely different support for things like Direct X. This often can cause major issues with drawing out on the screen. The other issue is the 2 cards may not have resource charts that are far enough apart to avoid resource issues. If you cant return the 470 card then you may want to try a 1GB 620 card for the 2nd video card and see if that will work. That will minimize the resource shadowing and hopefully run the 600 series card in the Direct X version the 400 series card will run.

Nvidia display driver has stopped responding and has recovered

Hello,
I'm fairly new to the boards. I recently purchased my first laptop, the t510. I have noticed on 2 occasions, about a month apart where the screen flickered and received the nvidia display driver message above. On the first occasion, I was running Google Earth. On the second occasion, I was playing a demo of a game. The power settings were on low in both instances. Is the problem that the video card was not receiving enough power or am I looking at imminent hardware failure. I have the 3 year depot warranty so I can certainly send it in for repair if necessary but I wanted to make sure it wasn't just a power setting. Any information you could provide would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Chad

Look at this thread:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T510-Nvidia-Display-stopped-and-recovered/m...
You are not the only one with this problem scout929.
Its not the best idea to do a direct comparison with the W510 thread, since that model doesnt use the same graphic processor as the T510 - but its a guideline to the driver being faulty nevertheless. So I guess we just have to wait for a driver that works better...

"Display Driver Has Stopped Responding And Recovered". I still have it after repair.

After some amount of email trouble shooting I sent the PC to bench repair. It came back with the declaration
Repaired (the problem was duplicated during full diagnostics).
It isn't clear what they did to repair it. One box is checked-
Bios
Update/driver
Update
The problem reappeared after a day of operation. I don't think it is related to any apps on this computer because it occurs most frequently while using Firefox- most of the PC useage and Excel.
It occured two times as I have been on the HP support forum.
I have been away from the computer for a few days. Tomorrow I think I should ask HP for a new computer.
Actually I am starting to wish I hadn't bought HP.
I know at least one or two others who have had a similar problem. I suspect more people have. Is this likely a systemic problem with the motherboard or video board this PC uses? Or a monitor problem?
As I have said previously the monitor will freeze for a second or two, black out briefly and come back to life with the error message.

Nvidia GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr driver hanging.. even after fresh OS install

Dear,
Sorry for my english
I'm facing issue with my Nvidia GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II, and I saw other do have...
My config :
When using windows, or games (I'm Crysis addicted ) I get a screen freeze, a blank (black) screen and after seconds a video driver message saying that it recovers the display as it were not responding anymore....
It happens without reason to me and temperature isn't related as it happen even with a temp of 45°c....
I've tried :
Updating driver, downgrading them,
Re installing Windows (x64),
Updating motherboard Bios (P55a-UD3R Gigabyte with latest bios version)
Flashing my OCZ Vertex 3 SSD (a pain ....)
Upgrading my power supply to a Corsair 750GS
Nothing corrects the problem.
At last I 'm looking to upgrade video bios but I don't want to brick my precious video card...
So I'm requesting your help to use "THE" good file version of video bios using NVFlash 5.118 for Windows for example.
Overclocking isn't my goal, stability is...
Thanks a lot for your help... as I ain't find video bios file on MSI support site....

You are lightning fast !!
880 -> 822
1050 -> 2000
I sure have done an error here !!
Modification will be done as soon as I get close to my Crysis PC... (ETA 18h00 GMT+1 )
880 -> 822 won't be noticable
1050 -> 2000 will result in a massive perf improvement ??
I red :
4000M hz !!!!
I believe it's all wrong...

Gtx 560 ti twin frozr OC/II fan problem

So i have had my Gtx 560 ti twin frozr for 2,5 Years about and i noticed week or two ago and my fan had weird noise yesterday i opened it to clean dusts and after that when i turned my PC saw and right fan isn't spinning (it spins every 4-5Sec for a moment and has annoying sound)
appreciate advices

The fan is faulty. As no replacement parts are offered separately by MSI suggest to switch to an aftermarket cooler like
Does that cool the VRAM well?

Pink srambled screen on youtube video (GTX 560 TI Twin Frozr II / OC)

Hello,
I got a problem with my MSI GTX 560 TI Twin Frozr II / OC 1 GB RAM.
I installed NVIDIA Reference driver version 260.10 from NVIDIA. Everything runs really fine except watching youtube videos in fullscreen. Sometimes watching youtube the screen scrambles pink and the pc stops responding (surpringsly teamspeak kept on working because i was still able to chat with my mates). If you google for "gtx 560 pink" youll find many people complain about this issue.
When I go back to NVIDIA reference driver version 295.73 everything runs really fine and no crashes in pink on youtube. The result of my research on this issue is that it seems mostly driver related.
For most people falling back to 295.73 or even earlier works on this issue. Some people suggested raising the voltage via msi afterburner, but I dont want to do that.
You can see for example of this issue also http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=224948&view=findpost&p=1393572 and http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18385492.
Anyway, I asked myself, whether this could also be VBIOS related.
So my bios can be found here.
Any help is appreciated! Thank you for reading!

About vbios you can ask msi here: http://support.msi.com/
Also you can test GeForce 301.24 or stuck to vga driver which works best for you.

GTX 560 Ti (Twin Frozr II) Temperatures

Hello, I know that temperatures are a 'hot' topic always, especially for the 560 Ti as it is rated 20'C cooler than stock. At the moment I hit a threshold of 92-95'C when playing World of Tanks on 1680x1050, full settings except Anisotropic 8x. The custom fan settings are such that after 70'C the fans are at 100%.
I have only 1 VGA - GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II, in an NZXT Tempest 410 Elite case. It has 2x 140mm exhausts (top) 1x 120mm exhaust (back), 3x 120mm intake (2 front, 1 bottom). I can attach pictures if a visual of the setup is needed. I have an excellent wiring setup, there is very little blockage. I also run BOINC and hit high 70s and mid 80s. Most games run in the high 80s.
I've tried Furmark a few times but anything larger than 800x600 maxes temperatures almost immediately (within seconds) and the fans cannot catch up and I stop it before it can set fire to itself. It also makes a loud ringing noise during those tests, so that's not good either.
Is anyone familiar with such high temperatures on a card that is not OC, other than how it came in the box, in a case with lots of airflow, playing games that really shouldn't be hitting that temperature? Also, I've tried testing with the removed side panel, it changes by perhaps +/- 1-2'C.
All help is greatly appreciated, I'd like to know if I have to RMA for faulty thermal paste or just stop worrying about the glowing red boiler in my computer.
Thank you,
Kyatto

Have you re-seated the cooler on it yet with fresh TIM? Some people have done that and got a reduction in temperature and therefore fan speed and noise as well. If that doesn't do any good then RMA the card as it should not get to max temp like that.
I don't have any issues like that on my 560 Ti GE TF ll and currently it's running f@h 66% fan speed, 73C at 99% GPU load, 23C room temp. This is in CM 330 Elite case with 1 front intake, 1 rear exhaust fans both 120mm + PSU fan exhaust. Nothing fancy there and I've never had temperature issues with any MSI (6 in all the past few years & all but 2 with TF ll coolers)
I certainly don't see how replacing all of his case fans would help with his VGA temperature problem.
This is one scenario I feel I can speak with authority on and I bet 100 internet points it doesn't address the issue but there is no harm in doing it.
AS LONG AS YOU ARE GENTLE PULLING THE HEATSINK OFF
You can't just lever it off, you'll need to giggle/spin/twist back and forth a bit. This is because you'll find an ungodly amount of gloop under the heatsink and it provides very strong surface tension.
The reason i ask about the adapter is I got a strange one with the 1st card I got that had to be RMA'd because of the same high temp issue you are having. (it was about 8cm long, and grey)
Initially I thought maybe it was a batch of cards that shipped with that one that were the hot ones, a duff batch.
Ironically I cant use both DVI sockets and the mini hdmi port because the card is not wide enough. The weird grey adapter would sort that issue out so I'm trying to find one.

GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC SLI

Hi Guys,
System:
ASUS P8P67 PRO
Corsair HX 850W
WIN 7 64 bit
G.Skill 2X4Gb 1600 Cl8
Two - GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC SLI
i5 2500K
I have been having problems (Blue lines/dots/squares, then system instability, driver crashes, and system crashes) since i built this computer and have finally narrowed the issue down to one of the 560's.
One works, one causes the above issues.
I've followed instructions on this forum and installed newest drivers using driver sweep ect.
When i install the working one as primary and the faulty one next to it, everything is fine until i enable SLI, then the above problems start.
If i remove the working one and install only the faulty one, i can barely get into windows.
Any suggestions? How can i RMA it?
Thanks,

Quote from: nutcase on 15-May-11, 00:12:45
I've tested each one by itself and got the same results, one thats unstable and one thats stable
oki so the issue its down to the one of the cards.
keep the unstable vga only installed in the PC until make it stable [eventually] before install the second one.
what's the default voltage for your card?
and have does the issue gone is gone if you apply reference clocks?

GTX 560 ti twin frozr II PSU

Hi everybody,
pls help me with my problem. I bought GTX 560 ti twin frozr II - in my case i have: Intel i5 750, 1TB HDD, 3GB DDR3 and 2x92mm fans. PSU is Seasonic S12II-520 Bronze.
When I connect graphic card on two 6pins and power on PC, nothing happend. Only fans on case, CPU, psu and graphic fans make small moves but PC do not start. When I disconnect two 6 pins, PC started, but I do not see scene on monitor. What is wrong, graphic card, or psu?
And sorry for my english.
Martin

thank you for you care
graphic card it is not "new" so I have not warranty (my fault) next time i will buy new. But graphic card look like new. On first look there is not traces of use.
I do not clear CMOS - I never heard, that I can clear CMOS after insert new component...
I do not check compatibility - after this card I have zotac gt220 synergy edition 512MB, but when gtx 560 ti not working i buy Gigabyte gtx 560 SOC and this card working.
And I have MB ASROCK P55M Pro.

Gtx 560 Ti twin frozr II driver crash

Hi, I have a gtx 560 Ti twin frozr II that randomly have driver crashes in windows. The screen would turn black for about 5 seconds and reappear saying the drivers have crashed. I have the latest drivers. This would happen about 2-3 times a day. Is there a way to fix this?

Check this thread and see if problem/possible solution might apply to you.
It possibly will if you're using Firefox and getting get pop-up messages saying something along the lines "nVidia driver crashed and then was restored"
